Strategy B) - learn about the powers of the items you find. For example, find a cursed “Empty Vial”, throw it at a "Ghost" to capture its soul. Then later drink the vial, become a Ghost and float through walls to escape danger. Or grab a “Levelup Bead”, wave it at a friendly character - he’ll level up and help you fight, or drop it on the ground, let a "Catapult" monster pick it up & toss it at you - you’ll level up and be able to pound monsters into the ground. But ouch! The "Nosferatu" monsters are too powerful!?! (Nosferatu is a type of vampire, Google it), yet they’re undead and undead monsters are vulnerable to medicinal herbs, like that "Wormwood" you just picked up!

Notes: save your game at any point, but Voyage to Farland uses hardcore Rogue rules (death=start over no items). Think of it as "tough love".

5 themed dungeons, 39 monster types with devious attacks, over 30 items and 4 NPCs you can recruit to help you fight!

Hints: try the training dungeon first, equip a shield as soon as possible, make good use of the herbs/beads/scroll's secret powers (tap INV, then select Explain from the item's sub menu - use the DPAD or swipe up/down in the center of the touchscreen to scroll in menus). Find an empty vial, use it to capture & morph into a monster to really throw down and you'll be hooked.

Notes:Despite the cute graphics, Voyage to Farland is one of the harder roguelike games in the Android market/Google Play. It's not a grindfest. Levels don't matter. Cleared dungeons are what matter in this game. You'll be tested from the very first floor. Many players dive in, attack everything, die quickly and get frustrated. This game demands a more clever approach. Until you find a shield you'll have to pick your battles wisely. Voyage has been on the market for over two years and yet only two players have cleared every dungeon (shout-out to Paul and Rodney!). You might be the third if you have patience, perseverance and a will to win! Some gamers want to kill time with mobile games. That's fine, but you're not like that. You want a challenge. You want to face the Spirit Witch and defeat her. You want to be the first adventurer to enter "The Path of No Return" and beat the dungeon once and for all. To unlock the secrets of Farland.

Updated! Holy crap, my initial review was harsh! But the comfortable controls make a huge difference, I'll definitely be playing this while I wait for my Valkerie Crusade vitality to refill. I played waaaaay too much Shiren on DS, so I'll probably do the same here.

I want to stab this game in the face and I can't stop playing ... I want to stab this game in the face and I can't stop playing it. Everything you like about Shiren and the main dungeon is a 30 minute run. DO IT.

Great Game! Easily one of the best roguelike's on the Android market! Edit: Recent update added a way more comfortable control scheme, with the D-pad in the lower left corner, and the dash in the lower right corner. Plus the new content.

Great game, needs interface changes This is a really cool game, similar to one of my favorite games ever, Shiren the Wanderer. But as other people have already said, the button layout and graphics need changing. Big time. The control pad should be on the bottom left, not the top left. The buttons on the bottom right are stretched out of the correct aspect ratio and look weird. Some of the graphics are really blurry. Basically, with a complete interface overhaul and cleaner graphics it would probably be my favorite game for Android.

Fun and Addictive Great little rogue-like and a perfect introduction to the genre for those who have not played this style of game before. Developer is extremely responsive and quickly fixed the multi-touch issue I had on ICS.

As of version 2.0 you can now select controls with the DPAD at the bottom left for phones and smaller screen devices.

The control options should come up when you tap the phone's MENU button, then "Settings".
About the Vial Trial, that's the most hidden dungeon. Check out the "Guide to Not Dying" on the website for a hint (concerning the fishing girl NPC in the stopover village after the Dark Forest).

Great game for what it is. This game is excellent for its style. Other reviewers need to realize this is an old school roguelike style game, not Diablo 3. It's supposed to look old. The controls work fine on my phone and the game is fun.

plays great, looks ugly Great game in serious need of a professional artist. Some sprites have solid colors, others are a mess of ugly gradients and blurs (the Tinbots, for example.) Also some areas have a grid (which I actually prefer for this sort of game) and other areas do not. The starting village also has a horrible layout which you will loathe navigating, despite its small size. My tablet allows multi touch but the multi touch controls don't work (thankfully there's a second button layout.) Finally the "miss" and "level-up" sounds seem more like place holders than final sounds. I hope we see improvement, the gameplay is 5-star!

As of version 1.92 (released in summer 2012) the multitouch issue should be fixed. Please send an email to the Peculiar Games support address in Google play if there's still a problem. Also there's a new level-up sound in version 2.0!

A Google User February 20, 2012

Not Great. The reviews for this were great so gave it a go. The control stick being at the top of the screen put me off very quickly. Very poor layout design. Means your thumb goes over the screen to move around. Seriously hindering the viewing area. Made the game unplayable for me.

What's New

v2.2.8: New graphics for monsters and items.

v2.0: optional controls for small screen devices (phones) with DPAD at bottom left (select MENU→Settings→Controls, then OK button), music/gfx changes, new beta Bot Subplot Dungeon and new NPCs/monsters to go with it.

"The perfect pocket-sized RPG" - pocketgamer.com

Choose one of twelve brave heroes then conquer a dungeon filled with monsters and loot! Use a tactical mixture of abilities, items, spells and cold, hard steel to fight your way to the exit. But beware! The stairs are guarded by a fearsome Dungeon Master who isn't planning on letting you past.

The full version features twelve classes with unique abilities, fifteen dungeons and a whole lot of tactical rpg-puzzle gameplay. You also get a full achievements system including unique challenges for every class.

If you completed the Free Version you can unlock your progress in this version - so you don't lose anything upgrading!

Brand new graphics from ShroomArts! Not exactly pixel art, but in the great tradition of 16-bit and console RPGs. Veterans note: the old tiles are still available from the Config menu.

So why do we call Dungeon Ascendance a roguelike puzzle game? DA has the random, proceedural level generation of a roguelike, the turn-based combat of a roguelike and the varied classes of a roguelike. But it also has the level-by-level, strategic 10-minute satisfaction of a puzzle game. There's never just 1 solution to a level but the game feels at least half a puzzle.

Sure, DA plays out differently to traditional roguelikes like nethack, ADOM, Dungeon Crawl or brogue but we like to think the heritage is still strong! Call it a strategic, dungeon-based, coffee-break, puzzle roguelike RPG if you will!

Compatible with Android phones and tablets. Care has been taken so the game runs well on low-end devices (HTC Wildfire etc.).

New tiles by ShroomArts (http://shroomarts.blogspot.com/). Old tiles by the crawl-tiles project (http://code.google.com/p/crawl-tiles/) [CC Zero]. You guys make these kind of games possible. If you like a good roguelike, check out Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup, now on Android & PC!

Enjoy!

Gravebound: a turn-based tactical roguelike RPG! No two games play the same, providing countless hours of adventure and dungeon crawling.

"Gravebound is a mash-up of several fantastic gaming genres.... Definitely don’t let Gravebound slip through your fingers. This is a game you’ll want to check out."-SuperGameDroid.com

Features- Randomly generated outdoor and indoor areas. Explore the bandit-filled forest, the zombie-plagued crypt, and the insect-infested cave.- A variety of enemies, each with their own set of strengths, weaknesses, skills, and behaviors.- 15 skills to find and master. - Collect weapons and armors with randomized stats and properties.- Permanent death and limited resources mean every choice matters.- Your most powerful skills drain your sanity. Rely on them too heavily and you'll go insane!- Unique allies, each with their own special talents, open up party-based combat... if you can find them.- Epic and challenging boss fight plus mini-bosses.

StoryYou are a Sheriff, a member of one of the last peacekeeping forces in a slowly dying world. Your weapons are the sword, the gun, and the psychic arts. Someone has burnt your lodge to the ground and killed your fellow Sheriffs. You mean to find out why. But an army of bandits, zombies, and feral creatures stand in your way. You'll need to keep your wits about you if you intend to survive.

What is a Roguelike?A roguelike is an RPG with permanent death (if you die, you have to start over) and randomly generated levels. Roguelikes are fun because every game is different and they can be played in long or short sessions. Examples include classics such as Angband or NetHack and newer games like Binding of Isaac or Dungeons of Dredmor.

Gravebound also has elements from strategy or tactics/tactical RPGs, particularly the Fire Emblem series. Gravebound was made for fans of roguelikes, tactical RPGs, dungeon crawlers, old school RPGs, board games, and adventure gamebooks. So give it a try!

If you'd like to try before you buy, there's a link to a free (ad-supported) version below. The free version requires you to watch a full page video ad when starting or continuing a game. If you don't see the link below it may be because the free version ad framework requires a newer Android version than Gravebound itself.

The dungeons are randomly placed in the overworld, changing your experience each play through.

Level up based on which weapon you use. Randomly generated items. Giant difficult dungeon bosses. Enemies with disgusting faces. Original Chip Bit music by Stress_tn.

This is the Fellowship Edition for Ananias Roguelike, where you can share your adventures with your friends and support the further development of the game. Check out the absolutely complete functional free version and then get this one if you like it :)

Descend 25 levels into the dungeon to find the ring of Ananias!

A dungeon exploration experience based on traditional roguelikes, but with a modern user interface designed upfront for mobile devices.

* Challenge your friends to who can dive faster and survive the dungeon!* Compete with your friends and for the global ranking* See when your friends are playing and how they are doing

Ananias is designed from the ground up with the idea of a straightforward user experience for a touch screen device; interactions are optimized so you don't have to waste time with cumbersome movement, while still allowing you to explore the dungeon and fight the dwellers of the dungeon.

A simple gameplay is also a strong design focus; the game is designed for you to be able to do quick playthroughs, trying to delve deeper into the dungeon every time.

There are 41 enemy types, each with an unique feature that makes him stand apart from the rest. We are favoring uniqueness versus quantity in the monster design.

At the beginning of the game you can pick a monster pet to join you in your adventure, each one of them has different abilities and can evolve into powerful creatures using magic spells found into the dungeon.

There are 4 classes, each one with its own strengths and weaknesses:

Alchemist* Shoots liquid at enemies (Acid, Liquid Fire, and other potions)* Can mix reagents into potions without danger of explosion.* Starts with powerful potions (Flame Potion for example which deals a lot of fire damage when thrown)

Arcane* Can cast the most powerful spells without danger of backfiring* Extends power of magic wands* Starts with powerful spells (like Charm Monster which makes any creature become your ally)

Paladin* Can use all weapons and armor* Blocks attacks using his shield* Extends lifetime of weapons

Hunter* Never misses a shot with a bow* Performs critical damage with bows* Prevents arrows from breaking

The levels in the dungeon are randomly generated every time you play, so you have to explore the level gathering useful equipment and looking the stairs to the next level, while avoiding death and managing your limited resources.

...will you drop your spare weapon and carry this potion with you, knowing it could be useful on the next level?...will you risk attacking a group of enemies to fetch that powerful armor that could save your life? or will you better run away to save your hitpoints...will you withstand the enemy attacks to reach the backrow and kill the phantom who is constantly healing all others?...will you carry with you that powerful weapon to use it against strong enemies two levels below, even if that means using up inventory space and attacking with a weaker weapon?

The odds are against you, but if you die there's always a chance to start again and wish for better fortune

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is a game based upon Pixel Dungeon's Open Source. it is posted with the permission of Watabou, the original dev of Pixel Dungeon. Its aim is to make Pixel Dungeon the best game it can be, with reworks to existing content and tonnes of new stuff as well!

Both Pixel Dungeon and Shattered Pixel Dungeon belong to the roguelike genre. The dungeon and items are randomly generated, so no two play sessions are the same. Roguelike games are difficult and feature permanent death (no loading a save to try again!). While you may try and fail many times, this makes winning all the more satisfying.

Here are the current differences from Pixel Dungeon:- Rogue class reworked with a new exclusive item!- Texts and boss/quest encounters in the sewers completely reworked!- Rings completely overhauled, 6 totally new rings!- New item class: ARTIFACTS! unique utility items that do not need scrolls of upgrade!- New food item/plant added, you'll have to find it!- Many potions/seeds/scrolls tweaked to be more useful, a few nerfed as well.- Dew vial no longer autorevives, but can now bless an ankh.- All sources of health potion farming nerfed.- many balance tweaks and bugfixes

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is constantly being updated, so expect this list to grow!

It is of the utmost importance that Shattered Pixel Dungeon still feels and plays like Pixel Dungeon, if you encounter any bugs or issues please contact me and I will try to sort them out. If something seems out of place or overpowered/underpowered, let me know and I'll look into it.

Shattered Pixel Dungeon is open source under the GPLv3 Licence. It is currently using v1.7.2a of Pixel Dungeon's source, and will be updated when new source is available. You can find the current Shattered Pixel Dungeon source here: https://github.com/00-Evan/shattered-pixel-dungeonIf you would like to do any work with this source code, please contact me first as a courtesy.

NEW! The app can now be upgraded for a one-time low fee to remove ads and get new features like SEARCH and SHARING via Twitter, Email, etc. - more planned soon. NOTE THAT sharing to Facebook & Pinterest currently does not work, but a fix may come in a future release.

Great for educators and a good conversation starter. Focuses on US "holidays", but amusing for people worldwide.

Checking WackyDays every morning is guaranteed to put a smile on your face!

About the "holidays": with the exception of the handful that we had to make up due to copyrights, etc. these are holidays people have created over the years. If there's no asterisk or "unofficial" tag, the "holidays" are out there and are celebrated by people. We encourage you to google them to check. Twitter usually has people tweeting about them, too.

Also, Wacky Days doesn't list standard holidays like Labor Day, etc. Instead, it concentrates on funny or strange "holidays" since there are plenty of other apps out there focusing on the official holidays.

HAS STAGES 1 TO 35 FROM THE FULL VERSION OF THE GAME (FULL VERSION HAS 60 STAGES, INCLUDING A BOSS FIGHT!)

Microchip Monsters is a unique game with a futuristic vibe. Part arcade, part puzzler, part casual. Viral invaders have taken over the Bots’ microchips and destroyed them. But the last Bot has come back as a ghost looking for revenge. Help him launch torpedoes and lay mines to destroy the virus infestation.

FULL VERSION WITH NO ADS & MORE ROGUE STAGES AVAILABLE!

Inspired by the classic Bit Generations games for the Gameboy Advance, Microchip Monsters is a nod to those addictive retro games. Gameplay has some Peggle-like elements, or freaky-futuristic pinball, minimalist presentation like pewpew or tron - but you'll have to try the game to see how it plays!

Includes pre-designed levels and a special "Rogue" mode with procedurally (randomly) generated levels. This FREE version has a small sampling of the Rogue stages - upgrade to the full version for nearly infinite replay value!

Note to other indie Android developers: this is the third Android game I've made using my port of libmodplug to Android (AndModPlug) to play MOD/XM tracker music. It's free and it's pretty cool. Check out the website to learn more.

Special thanks to tracker artist Mr.Lou for permission to use his song "Electric Memories" in the game!

More info about the controls:

FIRST DIRECTION TOUCH

Touch the screen the first time to set the direction of the probe (Photon Torpedo!). It will launch from the little green robot up toward the touch point. But very quickly it will start bouncing off silicon walls, bending around black holes & being sucked into worm holes.

MINE LAYING TOUCHES

Tap ANYWHERE ON THE SCREEN after that (up to 5 times) and the probe will lay mines that explode after one second. Use timing, great aim and your eye for geometry to make the probe fly where you want, drop a mine and blow up the pesky enemy!

Disclaimer: this game doesn't have zombies or cute cuddly characters, it is pure retro fun not a port from the iphone, dedicated to Android, watch the ghost robot dance (bob his head) to the music as he shoots wave after wave of invaders. Yes, black holes are normally in space, but this is a fantasy mash up game. Great colorful game for a mid sized tablet (Kindle Fire, Galaxy Tab). All original techno soundtrack. Games should have music. End of stream of consciousness section...

Wave Toy is a strange and mysterious electronic musical instrument. Touch the screen, move your finger and make ethereal music or just make noise!

Double-tap the screen to bring up floating configuration buttons or tap the MENU button for full documentation and app settings. With several tones and visualizations, Wave Toy is fun for adults and children alike!

This app demonstrates some features of my Android port of libmodplug to add "tracker" music support to your apps & games. Android doesn't natively support tracker music - that is until now with AndModPlug!

*NOTE THAT* it is NOT a general purpose MOD/XM player - there are already great apps for that on the Android Market. See Droidsound, XMP for Android, Amiga MOD Player and many more if you're not a developer and you're looking for a MOD tracker music player.

INSTEAD, this demo app is intended for developers who would like to add tracker music to their apps in order to take advantage of the tempo-changing, pattern-jumping tricks they can do, or to reduce the size of their soundtrack assets by a factor of 10 or even 100! Or just because you love tracker music!

AndModPlug is pretty cool and it's free! Donations are welcome, as are mentions in your app credits. :)

The AndModPlug Demos app is a collaboration between Peculiar-Games.com and IndieGameMusic.com.

BTW, I have three games out on the Android Market that use AndModPlug for the soundtracks. Be sure to check them out with the "More from developer" link!

The little character with green cap is modified from Daniel Cook's free prototyping graphics package "Planet Cute" - many thanks to him for his generosity!

What do you get when you combine Breakout, Space Invaders and Bomberman with a funky electronic soundtrack? Answer: Microchip Monsters!

Microchip Monsters is a unique game with a futuristic vibe. Part arcade, part puzzler, part casual. Viral invaders have taken over the Bots' microchips and destroyed them. But the last Bot has come back as a ghost looking for revenge. Help him launch torpedoes and lay mines to destroy the virus infestation.

Inspired by the classic Bit Generations games for the Gameboy Advance, Microchip Monsters is a nod to those addictive retro games. Gameplay has some Peggle-like elements, or freaky-futuristic pinball, minimalist presentation like pewpew or tron - but you'll have to try the game to see how it plays!

Includes pre-designed levels and a special "Rogue" mode with procedurally (randomly) generated levels for nearly infinite replay value.

Note to other indie Android developers: this is the third Android game I've made using my port of libmodplug to Android (AndModPlug) to play MOD/XM tracker music. It's free and it's pretty cool. Check out the website to learn more.

Special thanks to tracker artist Mr.Lou for permission to use his song "Electric Memories" in the game!

More info about the controls:

FIRST DIRECTION TOUCH

Touch the screen the first time to set the direction of the probe (Photon Torpedo!). It will launch from the little green robot up toward the touch point. But very quickly it will start bouncing off silicon walls, bending around black holes & being sucked into worm holes.

MINE LAYING TOUCHES

Tap ANYWHERE ON THE SCREEN after that (up to 5 times) and the probe will lay mines that explode after one second. Use timing, great aim and your eye for geometry to make the probe fly where you want, drop a mine and blow up the pesky enemy!

Notes:

"Part Arkanoid, part Bomberman, part Sonic Spinball, the game is a mashup of styles and genres" - savegameonline.com

People say my game Voyage to Farland is too hard. They want a more casual game. Well here you go. The game is casual. Yet it's also hardcore. You can fly through the stages and hit the stage 60 boss fight quickly. But can you CLEAR all the stages and get the golden button achievement? THAT is the question, indeed! To quote Mr.Lou, "I believe games should have music". And I believe mobile games should not be 50MB or 100MB downloads. That's why Microchip Monsters uses the tracker format for music. 44kHz stereo audio, but it still fits in a 1.5MB package. You'll be bobbing your head to the music just like the GhostBot does in the game. All while you blast the virus invaders to oblivion. Totally unique, Android exclusive, indie gaming goodness.

RGBbot is the brainchild of a mad scientist game designer's fascination with retro games and music gameplay integration. This isn't another clone game, or port from the iphone. You'll only find RGBbot on Android and you've never played a game like this!

Help the cute bots defend their planets from invading evil bots. Launch bots at invaders, make Red-Green-Blue combos to stop them. Timed & infinite stage modes. Higher stages are intense! Clever play will yield combo chain reactions for ultra high scores and you might even enter "Fever Mode"...

Permissions are from using Android API 4 so that RGBbot can run on old and new Android devices.
